Re: gnome-mag cursor focus position
Hi Aurelian, If you are running gnome-mag directly (e.g. 'magnifier'), and have it tracking the mouse directly (e.g. 'magnifier -m'), then the mouse pointer will be in the center of the screen automatically by default. If you are running gnome-mag via a screen reader like Orca or Gnopernicus, then you need to set the appropriate setting in your screen reader (e.g. Mouse tracking mode to Centered). Regards, Peter Korn Accessibility Architect, Sun Microsystems, Inc. Hello, Is there any setting I can change to make gnome-mag keep cursor focus in the middle of the magnification window, like it does with mouse pointer focus, not at the right margin? To be more clear, I want to see the characters I'm typing in the middle of the magnification window, like it used to be in previous versions of orca and/or gnome-mag. From what I understand, this is an orca setting, but I can't find it anywhere.

Re: gnome-mag cursor focus position
Hi Peter, Thank you for your answer. I was referring to the cursor in applications where you enter text. The mouse pointer is indeed centered when using the magnifier alone or through orca. But I need to use orca if I want gnome-mag to follow text editing or keyboard focus. The cursor is not centered, the magnifier follows it only when it reaches the end of the magnification screen. I know my description isn't very clear, but try to write something in oowriter or gedit while using gnome-mag through orca and you'll see what I mean.

Re: gnome-mag cursor focus position
Hi Aurelian, Send a message to the Orca mailing list: http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/orca-list This is certainly the best place for you question. You can also find a lot of informations about Orca configuration in http://live.gnome.org/Orca, although I don't find anything related with the option you want at a first glance.

problem with orca on the live cd.
Hi, has anyone been able to find out what is going on with the live CD. I see orca still doesn't work. I am able to get updates on the one I installed on a computer a few days ago using yasr, but none of the updates have fixed the problem with orca. If I run orca from the terminal it says welcome to orca setup and speech stops. I also notice the login sound is now gone.
